The evidence of THE ARRS' talent in addition to their pugnacity propelled the band into the Top Ten of French metal acts according to specialized press.

2009. The Arrs decided to set their imagination free, creating an album without boundaries and standing at the crossroad of genres. Strengthened by two years of touring with real legends, the band have sublimated their art and unleash "Héros Assassin" ["murderous hero"], a real work of refining which embodies THE ARRS' ambition and allows the band to express its own soul.
